LITTLE NIGHTMARES RELEASES ON CONSOLES AND PC THIS FRIDAY

Developed by Tarsier StudiosGame releasing on April 28th, 2017Platforms: PC | PS4 | Xbox One

For the past month, I've been in Japan. I'm sure you're already aware and missed me dearly. Fear not, reader, I am back. And I have returned to news that a game I've been keeping an eye on is releasing very soon. Little Nightmares looks to be a dream come true for horror fans, and it's time to wake up, because it is being released this week. Tarsier Studios' "suspense-adventure" is coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on 28 April for £15.99.

Little Nightmares is a creepy puzzle-platformer in which you control Six, a raincoat-clad protagonist trying to survive in a world that seems to want you dead. Long arms reach out for you from the shadows, chefs with meat cleavers chase you down, and a dark environment towers above your tiny frame. It's all very surreal, and it's something that I want to be a part of.

My own little nightmare is figuring out how I'm going to find the time to play this game when Persona 5 is vying for my attention. Hopefully you won't have the same problem when Little Nightmares is released on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC this coming Friday. Sweet dreams.

If Ryan isn't watching, reading or playing some form of horror, he's probably writing about it. He used to be an Editor at Indie Game Magazine so he has a soft spot for independent creators, especially when they're creating fear. Whether you're one such creator, or a fellow horror fan, let's speak about spooks on Twitter or email.
